Monday Motivation #4 – Change Your Perspective on Success

Success, it’s one of those odd words that should mean something different to every person – but 21st century life often means that for many success is the same thing.

That success tends to come in the form of a promotion at work, a pay rise, paying the bills, buying a new car or tv … and whilst they could all be considered generally a success they aren’t really what success is about. Today’s Motivation Monday is about giving you the power to re-think what success means to you and allowing it to open up new corridors in your life.

Success should be about what makes you feel awesome, what makes you happy – not your business goals (even if they do sometimes feel great).

If you are struggling to grasp how you can make success more personal and meaningful, here are a few things to remember.

You are in control – “You are the writer, producer, director, stage manager and set designer of your life. You are also the star.” – Jo Casey

Money may support your success but not (in itself) be success.

It probably will have nothing to do with your work.

So here is your 60 second challenge:Think of 1 success and what actions you can take (right now) to get more success.
